What are Mandarin Oranges?
Mandarins (Citrus reticulata) are one of the most popular citrus fruits in the world, loved for their sweet flavour, juicy flesh, and thin, easy-to-peel skin. Smaller than standard oranges, mandarins are perfect for snacking and widely used in both sweet and savoury dishes.
Originating in China and Southeast Asia, mandarins have a long history in culture and cuisine. In China, they symbolise luck and prosperity, often exchanged during Lunar New Year. Today, mandarins are grown across Spain, Morocco, Italy, and beyond — making them a global citrus staple.
